says:Made the cake, seemed dry and crumbly. We could literally pick up the baked, cooled cake, hold it with one hand, and move it from the plate to the cake plate to be frosted without it breaking – very structurally sound. We topped it with cream cheese frosting, which really rescued it. Also, this is not an “easy” recipe. This is not the texture I look for in a cake, would not make it again.
